Painting dilemma (long). What would you do?

Please do. More information is always useful, especially if it saves me from wasting more paint and another 20+ hours reprepping. :thumbsup:

I would take it to Maaco too, but the nearest one is 100 miles away. The base/clear I want to use is close to $700 for a gallon. But I'd be really happy if it only cost me the same for labor!

*Michelangelo as in Buonarotti? I'm pretty sure Michael Angelo is one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles...
